You will be able to complete the application form online or download the form to complete offline then email or post to us.

We encourage students to apply as early as possible to secure a place on the course of their choice.

We aim to contact all applicants regarding a date for an informal interview in the Spring term and conclude all interviews before the Easter holidays. The course guidance meeting is conducted by academic staff who will advise and guide you through your course choice.

Suitable applicants who apply after the January deadline may still be invited to a meeting to discuss their application within one month of IC6 receiving the application. Where popular courses are full applicants will be placed on a waiting list.

It should be noted that the curricular offer is subject to the availability of specialist staff at the start of the academic year and sufficient numbers enrolled on the subject/course.
